To all, whom it may concern:

' Bo 1t known that l, FRANK ll. WinT- COMB, a c ltlzen of the UnitedStates, residing at Marion, in the count)l ot Grant and State reference,41 designates a casing winchmay ol" India-na, hare invented a new anduseful Pump, of which the following is a specitication.

This invention relates to pumps and is more particularly designed forldispensing liquids in predetermined quantities and for indicating thecost oi' the amount of liquid discharged.

The invention is more particularly designed for neasurmg coal oil,gasolene, lubricating and inadmie oils, and other liqids which are treeot acids.

he apparatus is also designed, with slight modifications, to he used asa force )ump designed' to be actuated either hy hand, wind, or enginepower and suitable i'or use in mines and reservoirs to draw watertherefrom.

One of the objects of the invention is to )rovide a device of thischaracter which can lue readily connected to a suitable source. ofsupplyand when actuated is designed to cause. a predetermined quantityof liquid toy be withdrawn 'from the supply and discharged at a suitablepoint.

A still further object is to provide apparatus which is at all times incondition to force -Water therethrough, said apparatus he- 1nurconstructed so as to automatically rcceive li uid from the supply-whileother liquid is icing d ischargcd.

Another object is to provide a scale whereby the cost of dispensedliquid will bel accu rately indicated. This is particularly desirableWhere. the apparatus used for dis- )easing oils, etc.

Vl-Tith these and other ohjectsin view the invention consists ot`certain novel features of construction and combinations of Aparts Wliichwill he hereinafter more fully described and pointed out in the claims.

ln the accompanying drawings is shown the. preferred form of theinvention, the saine being designed for dispensing-oils and the like. v

ln said drawings: Figure l is a vertical section through the apparatusembodying the present improvements. Fig, 2 is an elevation of the rearportion of the indicator and its actuating meansg Fig. 3 is a viewpart-lv in section and 'partly'in elevation showing a. modified meansfor transmitting motion to ,tion ol" which is located a cylinder 2.

Referringl to the ligures hy characters of por- The heads 3 and 4 otthis cylinder are clamped upon the ends thereof hv means of holtev Oneof the heads has a gland 7 through which a piston rod 49 extends.Suitahl)Y connected to thc cylinder 2 is a valve casing 1l) having a hesuitahly ornamented and in the lower centrally arranged port 11 andprovided also with ports 12 and 13 at opposite sides of the port 11. Aslide valve 5l is mounted within the casing 1() and is so constructedthat when the san-ic is shifted in one direction ports 11 and 12% areplaced in connnunication and port 12 is openedinto casing 1U, whereasit' the valve is shifted in the opposite direction port 13 is openedinto the valve casing1r a'nd ports l1 and l2 placed in communication. Apipe 2U extends from port 13 to'the lower portion ol cylinder 2 andanother pipe 21 extends from port 12 Oto the upper portion of said cvlinder. A feed pipe 22 opens into the valve casingT lt) and extendsfrom supply tankor barrel, not shown. A discharge pipe 23 extends ironithe port l1 and ahove the casing 4] where it terminates in a nozzle 24.The casing or housing 41 has a top l2 prorided with a casing 43. Withinthis casing is mounted a small drive gear ist designed tohe actuated h va crank l5, and a. large gear 46. A crank 47 is rotated h v this gear 4hand drives a pitman 48 which is pivotallv connected to the rod 49 oipiston 5t). A sliding valve 51 which is similar to valve 1li has a rod52 provided with adjnstahle stops 53 between which is slida-hly mountedan actuating arm 54 extending from rod 4). A casing 55 is mounted on thetop 42 an d rotat ably mounted in rear thereof is a dial 56 havingratchet teeth 57. adapted to lie successivelyY engaged hfv a pawl. 58movable with the rod 52. Projecs tions 5*.) extend from the dial and aredesigned to actuate a resilient stem ou carrying a clapper 61 disposedto strike a hell 62. When the gear Ltst is rotated the crank 47reciprocates rod 49 and piston. 50 and each time the arm 54 moves upwardor downw ard with the piston it strikes one of the stops 53 andshiftsthe valve. At the same time one of the pawls 5S engages a tooth onratchet 57 on the dial so that a character will appear a suitable gThese teeth are fg, nemen crunk 6.5 which ir; mounted in the saunennniner nu, und in similar lo the crunk 47.
